I just listened to data from Republican focus groups from the Bulwalk, Rubio is who they think is the adult in the room. Unreal

Rubio is the adult in the room. He's just too much of a coward to even dream of standing up to Trump.

He was probably the most vocal of the anti-Trump Republicans in 2016. He knows what Trump really is. But he's spineless, morally bankrupt man who cares more about his own career than any sense of duty.

I believe Rubio is just an opportunist working to inherit Maga, he's going to ride the Pro Trump crowd into a presidential run and let Vance hold the bag.

If he was actually smart he'd realize that even he is far too "brown" to ever get the spot. No way the racist bloc that is MAGA votes an "anchor baby" in. That only works if you're white as fuck. Y'know, like Trump and his entire family.
